Nintendo's partnership with Hasbro has us dreaming big. With The Legend of Zelda officially getting a new line of toys, we discuss what we'd love to see, from collector-quality action figures and playsets to the possibility of a future Magic: The Gathering crossover. We also debate whether this new line will focus on the upcoming live-action Zelda movie or specific games like Ocarina of Time, and share a few concerns about how the partnership could play out.

Plus, we cover the latest Nintendo headlines, including The Duskbloods network test, a new content update for Mario Tennis Fever, Castlevania: Belmont's Curse launching day-and-date on Nintendo Switch, Adventures of Elliot adding an option to disable character voices, frustrations surrounding Octopath Traveler I & II's Switch 2 versions, Pokémon GO's massive 10th anniversary celebration in Times Square, and F-Zero 99's soundtrack joining Nintendo Music.
